Mölnlycke BARRIER Universal ISCC single-use surgical drapes

The Mölnlycke BARRIER Universal ISCC* drapes and sets offer flexible surgical draping solutions that can be combined to meet most surgical needs.

They add sustainable improvements to the manufacturing process as the next step in reducing fossil-based CO₂ emissions in the supply chain. The ISCC drapes offer the identical performance of the company’s non-ISCC equivalents; the difference is the use of bio-based materials that reduce the depletion of fossil oil and reduce CO₂ emissions.

The drapes are impermeable and absorbent with adhesive edges. The critical areas, closest to the wound, are reinforced with a stronger, more absorbent material. All foldings are designed for optimal aseptic handling and easy application.

The company’s ISCC certified surgical drapes mark the next big step in the long journey towards actively minimising environmental footprint. Gradually reducing fossil-based CO₂ emissions in the supply chain and production means being able to maintain full traceability and accounting for the volume of non-fossil-based material that has been put into the system.
